#vulnerability

A Session Fixation vulnerability existed in Payload's SQLite adapter due to identifier reuse during account creation. A malicious attacker could create a new account, save its JSON Web Token (JWT), and then delete the account, which did not invalidate the JWT. As a result, the next newly created user would receive the same identifier, allowing the attacker to reuse the JWT to authenticate and perform actions as that user. This issue has been fixed in version 3.44.0 of Payload.

Payload uses JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for authentication. After log out JWT is not invalidated, which allows an attacker who has stolen or intercepted token to freely reuse it until expiration date (which is by default set to 2 hours, but can be changed). This issue has been fixed in version 3.44.0 of Payload.

Click Studios, the developer of enterprise-focused password management solution Passwordstate, said it has released security updates to address an authentication bypass vulnerability in its software. The issue, which is yet to be assigned a CVE identifier, has been addressed in Passwordstate 9.9 (Build 9972), released August 28, 2025. The Australian company said it fixed a "potential

A malicious user may submit a specially-crafted complex payload that otherwise meets the default request size limit which results in excessive memory and CPU consumption of Vault. This may lead to a timeout in Vault’s auditing subroutine, potentially resulting in the Vault server to become unresponsive. This vulnerability, CVE-2025-6203, is fixed in Vault Community Edition 1.20.3 and Vault Enterprise 1.20.3, 1.19.9, 1.18.14, and 1.16.25.

CISA has added three actively exploited vulnerabilities in Citrix and Git to its KEV Catalogue. Federal agencies must…

This week, Joe encourages you to find your community in cybersecurity and make the effort to grow, network and hack stuff together.

This is the same vulnerability as https://github.com/edgelesssys/contrast/security/advisories/GHSA-h5f8-crrq-4pw8. The original vulnerability had been fixed for release `v1.8.1`, but the fix was not ported to the main branch and thus not present in releases `v1.9.0` ff. Below is a brief repetition of the relevant sections from the first GHSA, where you can find the full details. ### Impact * [Workload secrets](https://docs.edgeless.systems/contrast/1.11/architecture/secrets#workload-secrets) are visible to Kubernetes users with `get` or `list` permission on `pods/logs`, and thus need to be considered compromised. * Since workload secrets are used for [encrypted storage](https://docs.edgeless.systems/contrast/1.11/howto/encrypted-storage) and [Vault integration](https://docs.edgeless.systems/contrast/1.11/howto/vault), those need to be considered compromised, too. ### Patches Patches: * https://github.com/edgelesssys/contrast/commit/5a5512c4af63c17bb66331e7bd2768a863b2f225 * https...

### Impact When visiting a specific URL, an anonymous user could cause the NodeJS server part of Volto to quit with an error. ### Patches The problem has been patched and the patch has been backported to Volto major versions down until 16. It is advised to upgrade to the latest patch release of your respective current major version: - Volto 16: [16.34.0](https://github.com/plone/volto/releases/tag/16.34.0) - Volto 17: [17.22.1](https://github.com/plone/volto/releases/tag/17.22.1) - Volto 18: [18.24.0](https://github.com/plone/volto/releases/tag/18.24.0) - Volto 19: [19.0.0-alpha4](https://github.com/plone/volto/releases/tag/19.0.0-alpha.4) ### Workarounds Make sure your setup automatically restarts processes that quit with an error. This won't prevent a crash, but it minimises downtime. ### Report The problem was discovered by FHNW, a client of Plone provider kitconcept, who shared it with the Plone Zope Security Team (security@plone.org).
